Pros

In sales we manager our own schedules, set challenging goals, work as a team, celebrate the wins and take planned time off to renew and relax. It's a culture of growth and we are challenged daily to achieve our best for the BIG picture of a global mission.

Cons

The bar is set fairly high for performance. This isn't a place where you can coast or let off the gas for long. The demand is excellence and those that refuse to grow go away. Expect to be challenged and learn new information quickly.

Pros

Just to quantify my review a bit, I am within the top 10% of inside sales reps within our 12,000 person company. It is a great place to work and people doing well ARE able to make good money here. The executive team ALWAYS has a platform for reps to help make SolarCity a better place every quarter. They involve the top 20 reps each quarter in various ways to help their peers through an interactive group called Team Elite. Executives, VP's, Directors, and Managers are always willing to help and go to bat when there are issues with things that need to be fixed. The direction of the company is consistent and although the company is large, decision makers work as hard as possible to steer the big ship quickly when necessary.

Cons

Knee jerk reactions with decision making at a director level create issues from time to time. Culture has had its ups and downs due to HUGE growth last year and subsequent high attrition rates.
